Abstract/OtherAbstract:

BACKGROUND: In this study, we sought to characterize the outcomes after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with a history of remote (≥14 days), and recent (<14 days), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).METHODS AND RESULTS: Patients with PCI within 5 years of CABG were identified among 12 591 primary isolated CABG reported in the mandatory Massachusetts Adult Cardiac Surgery Database. Patients were excluded if they were out-of-state (n=1043, 8%), had undergone primary PCI for acute myocardial infarction (n=401, 3%), had a PCI-CABG interval >5 years or unknown (n=136 and n=673, 1% and 5%). Patients with a history of remote and recent PCI were analyzed separately. Each CABG patient with PCI was matched to 3 patients without PCI using a propensity score. Outcomes were analyzed using generalized estimating equations and stratified proportional hazards models, with a mean follow-up of 4.1±1.2 years. There were 1117 CABG patients (9%) with prior PCI (n(remote)=823; n(recent)=294). In matched CABG patients with remote prior PCI, no differences were found in 30-day mortality (1.1% versus 1.5%; P=0.432), hospital morbidity (41% versus 40%; P=0.385) and overall survival (hazard ratio, [95% confidence interval] for death for prior PCI, 0.93 [0.74 to 1.18]; P=0.555). In matched CABG patients with recent prior PCI, hospital morbidity was higher (59% versus 45%; P<0.001), but no differences were found in 30-day mortality (3.5% versus 3.1%; P=0.754) and overall survival (HR, 1.18 [0.83 to 1.69]; P=0.353).CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing CABG, remote prior PCI (≥14 days) was not associated with adverse outcomes at 30 days or during long-term follow-up.
